Chapter Summaries

Ning Fa survived the green-robed old man's attack and completed the Moon God Heart through his resonance with Ling Yue. As the Realm Wall between the Cangyuan and Tianli Cultivation Worlds began to collapse, he learned that war was imminent and flew down to join the battle over the Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure.

• Ning Fa used the Gale Thunder Talisman to severely wound the green-robed old man, but the old man's black sword qi damaged Ning Fa's spear and injured him.
• Moon Essence Power drew Ning Fa to Ling Yue, whose brief awakening revealed her connection to the Tianli Cultivation World's plan to break the Realm Wall.

• Ning Fa sensed that the battle over the Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure had reached a critical point, gathered his injured spirit beasts, and flew down to help.

The awakened Demon Scion seized control of the battle and began demonizing the Golden Moon Banner, forcing Ning Daozhen and Purple Crystal True Monarch to join forces against her. She trapped everyone in golden spheres and left Ning Fa alive after struggling to attack him, while the banner’s demonization continued.

• The black-armored woman stamped a black rune onto the banner, which trapped everyone, including Ning Fa, inside golden spheres.
• The Demon Scion struggled to attack Ning Fa but abandoned the attempt and continued demonizing the banner, which had turned nearly half black.

A white mirror appeared through the Moon Radiance Heavenly Seal and disrupted the black-armored woman’s attempt to corrupt the Golden Moon Banner, but she triggered the treasure’s self-destruction, unleashing spatial chaos across Moon Reflection Valley. Zhuo Qing briefly regained control and sent Ning Fa away; he awoke in an unfamiliar mist-filled space, wondering where he was and how Zhuo Qing had used the mirror.

• The Realm Wall collapsed, and a white phantom entered the Moon Radiance Heavenly Seal, forming a White Water Mirror that trapped the black-armored woman and weakened her corruption of the Golden Moon Banner.
• Bai Yeming recognized the mirror as Moon Lord’s aid, and Ning Daozhen, Purple Crystal True Monarch, Liao Wuyin, Wen Xiuxin, Ning Fa, and the others attacked the black-armored woman.
• The black-armored woman used a Black Orb to intensify the Golden Moon Banner’s corruption, causing the treasure to self-destruct and unleash spatial rifts that destroyed the White Light Cage and scattered the fighters.

• Ning Fa awoke in a strange, mist-filled space, realized Zhuo Qing had helped him escape, and wondered how she had activated the White Water Mirror and where he had been taken.

Ning Fa escaped into a strange space and discovered that the pond’s untouchable white mirror was the projection of a Profound Heaven Spirit Treasure. The Source-Crossing Heavenly Book absorbed the projection and changed, while Ning Fa’s Moon God Heart entered a newly formed pool in his Sea of Consciousness.

• Ning Fa found that his Mental Connection with Zhuo Qing remained faintly intact, then used his greatly expanded divine sense to search the mist-filled space for several days.

• A white droplet from the Heavenly Book entered Ning Fa’s Sea of Consciousness and became a pool, into which his complete Moon God Heart descended.

Ning Fa discovered that the Source-Crossing Heavenly Book had entered his Sea of Consciousness and learned that the strange space was the place Hermit Tianyi had sought. After returning to Giant Deer City to begin preparing for the coming invasion, he found Tian You had fallen into deviation and attacked him and Ouyang Qinghe.
